Review by ADAM E.

FundraiserReviewed on October 13, 2025From Reno, NV

Billy was great! He coordinated in advanced, showed up early and was ready to go. He's flexible, on the spot and provided the use of his PA to make announcements, although we had our own equip., he offered his as a back up. The music he played was perfect for our event; the feedback I got from our guests was overwhelmingly positive. He plays a mix of classic hits and original music. I would rebook him at the next opportunity, and I highly recommend him. Billy, if you see this, many thanks - you exceeded all expectations! Adam E.

Memorial ServiceReviewed on March 17, 2025From Reno, NV

It was an honor to have Billy perform at my mom's celebration of life. Billy is so incredibly talented and delightful to work with. We had a treacherous storm start the day before the service. The roads were covered in snow and there were accidents, making his trip twice as long as it would normally be. However, Billy came through for us. He braved the roads and arrived on time. I was so very impressed and grateful for Billy. Billy was also very professional and he brought everything he needed for his performance. Billy even learned my mom's favorite song to play at the end of the service. Billy's performance made the entire celebration extra special for everyone.

FuneralReviewed on July 9, 2024From Boulder City, NV

Billy sang 2 songs at my mother's funeral service at the Southern Nevada Veterans Cemetary on July 8, 2024. He sang an original recording "Butterfly" and John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads." Billy was AMAZING! He sang beautifully and gracefully handled an unfortunate interruption during our service (one of the grounds guys interrupted the service but Billy was a Pro and didn't get rattled.) From the day I booked Billy, to the actual funeral service, he was in communication with me about the songs and agenda. Everyone enjoyed Billy's songs and he was an absolute pleasure to have at my mom's funeral. I HIGHLY recommend Billy for your event.

A character…we had tons ‘o fun with him at our party. Nice rich sound that didn’t overwhelm our conversations and activities. Musical selections right on target and played a special request. Definitely will hire again given the opp. Thanks Billy!

Wine Tasting PartyReviewed on October 11, 2022From Saint Helena, CA

Billy was communicative from our first contact, and committed to providing our event with the best he could offer. He was easy to work with, paid attention to all aspects of the evening in terms of song choices and volume, and set the perfect tone for our event!

Memorial ServiceReviewed on October 15, 2021From Vacaville, CA

Billy did a great job for us and was very accommodating. He took time ahead of the event to get a feel for what we wanted and did more of the same at the event. Would use his services again!!

Private PartyReviewed on October 3, 2021From Sacramento, CA

Billy was warm, friendly and enjoyable. He was able to understand the vibe of the group and fit in wonderfully. He is an excellent musician and performer. I will have him back in the future and will recommend him to everyone.

FuneralReviewed on June 18, 2019From Elk Grove, CA

I have never hired a musician and had no idea what I was doing. Gigmasters sent out notice and I received several quotes. After talking with Billy i hired him for our memorial. Billy could not have been more accommodating. We talked several times prior to the event to work out all details,He sang all requested songs + suggested an appropriate song he had written. He was on time, polite, allowed me to use his sound system. Would use him again and recommend him to others

FundraiserReviewed on June 10, 2019From Reno, NV

Billy Bensing was fantastic - we got many comments from our guests at how much they enjoyed the music. He was there early, set up and ready to go for the start of our event. Billy also accommodated our request to start outside on the patio for our cocktail hour, then move his equipment inside to continue playing during dinner. I would absolutely recommend him for your event!
